-{pve} ships as a set of Debian packages, so you can simply install it
-on top of a normal Debian installation, or download the installation
-CD-ROM and use that to install {pve} on your hardware.
+{pve} is based on Debian and comes with an installation CD-ROM
+which includes a complete Debian ("jessie" for Proxmox VE 4.x) system as
+well as all necessary Proxmox VE packages. The
+installer just asks you a few questions, then partitions the local
+disk(s), installs all required packages, and configures the system
+including a basic network setup. You can get a fully functional system
+within a few minutes. This is the preferred and recommended installation method.
